Customer Reviews
Best book, but priced high!
I've read this tale several times and I still love it! But my paperback didn't cost me $10 way back in the day (& I bought the book 2xs over)! If you haven't read it it's worth the money!! But if you just wanted a digital copy to read again I feel $3.99 is more on point... It's not a new book, but the story is still new and original :)
